The Wisconsin Humane Society (WHS) is a private, nonprofit organization whose mission is to build a community where people value animals and treat them with respect and kindness. For more than 128 years, WHS has been saving the lives of animals in need. We offer adoption services that place 9,000 animals in new homes annually, veterinary services that save thousands of lives, educational programs that instill respect for animals, behavior services to assist guardians and a myriad of other initiatives that help end suffering for animals. We depend entirely on private donations to fund our programs and rely on volunteers in nearly every department. If you are interested in adopting, volunteering, enrolling in a class, taking a tour or making a donation, check out our comprehensive web site at wihumane.org. The adoptable animals' web pages are updated every 30 minutes!

When you meet him at WHS, you'll instantly fall for Papoose, a 9.5-year-old red tabby who is huggable, snuggable, and lovable!

He is a connoisseur of chin scratches and an expert on neck rubs. This affectionate, large kitty has a handsome red tabby coat that he likes to have brushed.

Papoose loves to lounge around, watching the world from the comfort of his window seat. This cuddlebug is a champion cuddler and would make a superior late-night movie companion.

Papoose was surrendered when his previous guardian passed away, but he is looking forward to beginning spring in a new, caring home. See him at Wisconsin Humane Society, or click here to learn more about the adoption process.
